DESTROYING SHIPS BEHIND ISLANDS

[jameskirk007]

HEY!!

 

i have been watching a lot of YouTube videos     and i find most of the youtubers such as notser use some control to see and look over islands like slighty above and most of the time its not because of spotting aircrafts           

 

im in need of an answer for this ,big time

The only way I can do that is press M quickly twice , which brings up the map, then I can see which way they are pointing & how close to the island they are (if they are not invisible that is)

best thing you could do is:

Give us some examples (links of videos/streamvods)

 

Because we won't be able to accurately know what you're trying to talk about.

Are you sure it's not because of spotting aircraft?

Double tap M key and it will start to go to Map view, but then quickly returns to the regular view.  As it moves upwards towards Map view, in that quick moment you get a view similar to spotting aircraft.  You can see this often in Flamu videos.

There is a trick fire your guns at the target and hit z that will follow the shells and u get a birds eye view. Helps a bit to judge speed and heading

Also you can just raise you gun. This will often allow you to see a little more. Then using that information you can lower your gun and make an informed guess. Eventually you get used to it and can just fire x distance below the name tag.

This. Yep, smashing M no longer works. You either have to use spotter, or guess.

Between 11 to 13km its not impossible to shoot over cover if u can spot the enemy. Sometimes the shot are fired just before the enemy regain concealment so the shots are still on

I tried use that, but i could not get better result from shooting. Maybe I tapped too slow or fast.

Double tap M (the default minimap key) in quick succession, scope vision recommended. The render/minimap transition is currently elevate the camera from rangefinder position to above the battlefield. This allows a brief time window during which the camera angle is slightly above your rangefinder, near where the spotter plane would be.

But 0.7.1 PT has reconfigured the animation and this mechanism abuse would be gone.
